Kentucky Spring Premier Horse Show Set for April; New Date, Location and Classes Offered in 2010

Lexington, Kentucky - The 2010 Kentucky Spring Premier Horse Show is scheduled for Wednesday, April 14, through Friday, April 16, and includes significant changes from the previous year's show.

In particular, the show has been moved to the new state of the art indoor facility at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, the same venue in which some of the World Equestrian Games are set to be held later this year. The new arena, footing and stabling are expected to enhance the experience of the participants and their horses. Other changes will include an adjusted competition date to avoid conflicts with the Kentucky Derby, and the addition of new breed sections.

The three-day full schedule includes a wide range of performance classes for Saddlebreds, Hackneys, and Road Horses. New breed divisions added for the 2010 show comprise of Morgans, National Show Horses, Half and Full Bred Arabians, and Modern Shetlands. Exhibitions will also be offered featuring the Miniature Horse. And, for Equitation enthusiasts, the event will host a USEF Saddle Seat Medal qualifier, the National Horse Show Good Hands Class, UPHA Challenge Cup, and Walk/Trot Challenge Cup.
